Introduction to Probabilty

Tossing a Coin When a coin is tossed, there are two possible outcomes:heads (H) ortails (T)We say that the probability of the coin landing H is ½.And the probability of the coin landing T is ½.

Introduction to Probabilty

The probability of an event is the measure of the chance that the event will occur as a result of an experiment. The probability of an event A is the number of ways event A can occur divided by the total number of possible outcomes.

Probability of an event happening = Number of ways it can happenTotal number of outcomes

Throwing Dice When a single die is thrown, there are six possible outcomes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.The probability of any one of them is 1/6.
